Mobile Technology has transformed the way we live, we study, we travel, etc. Things have been made easier as well as laziness has grown among youngsters due to work being easily done via technology. What we don’t know is that the smartphones we use are not just transforming our behavior but also the shape of our skulls.
New research in biomechanics suggests that Horns are growing on Young People’s Skulls. The bone spurs caused by the forward tilt of the head, which shifts weight from spine to muscles at the back of the head. This causes bone growth in tendons and ligaments. The result is a hornlike structure growing above their necks.
As mentioned, while using smartphones users have to bend their heads to look at the screen. As people continuously look at the screens for more than 4-5 hours, slowly the bone grows. The interesting thing about this research is that it came out last year but got famous when it got published last week on the BBC. The title of the story was: ‘How modern life is transforming the human skeleton.’
Since then, the story has been successful in capturing the attention of Australian Media and many others. Not just horns, the bone is being referred to as ‘phone bones’, ‘Spikes’ or ‘Weird bumps’.
Effects
The growing bone could lead to chronic headaches and pain in the upper back and neck. Now, this is something one should worry about. When the neck and the head are not in the proper position, things could go wrong.
